Password revealed in Firefox

I was taken aback when I found out that my passwords are kept in Firefox browser and shown up when a button is clicked. So anybody who get his hands on your computer can just by a few clicks dig out the passwords for internet banking service etc. We can choose to remove them.

Send blog directly from Firefox

Today I installed ScribeFire, an add-on for Firefox web browser, that let me write blog and publish it directly without the need to log in at Blogger.

Make life easily for lazy people like me who find logging in and writing blog a 61kg burden (i.e. to drag myself to the computer table) :-)

Fishing trip to dams around Machap Baru

Last Sunday I went to Machap Baru, Melaka, for fishing. I used the new Abu Garcia Cardinal spinning reel and rod bought two weeks previously. The proverbial first-timer-luck proved to be true to its core and I was endowed with a 300 gram ikan keli at Jus Dam. Seen in the picture were my youngest daughter and my second brother’s eldest son.

We went to look for the famed red mee and roti kok in Machap Baru new village. The red mee was so so in taste. The roti kok was slightly softer than a rock and didn’t manage to break my teeth. We sipped coffee in one of the busy old fashioned coffee shop. The just concluded by-election did not leave any marks except a few posters, certainly none of the big shot campaigners like Najib and Ong Ka Ting had etched their name on the coffee table that I sat by.

We tried a few more fishing spots and did not catch any fish. The locals said the fish, especially the toman, had learned to be very smart over the years and will not bite any bait anyhow.

Even Abu Garcia can misfire

The first time I bought Abu Garcia Cardinal 801 spinning reel (on 7 Apr 2007) at RM200 I felt so proud. It was by far the most expensive reel I ever purchased. So, like taking care of the new born baby I pored through every aspect to admire the craftsmanship. Before long I came to notice a bad screwing of the anti-reverse button; as you can see in the picture the screw ran out of place and spoilt the groove.

I brought back to the shop and luckily the owner promptly changed for me a new one with no qualm. So next time when you by a Abu Garcia spinning reel which was Made in China, do have a detail look of it before leaving the shop. Don’t be blinded by the glares of the golden Abu Garcia tag.
